Monday
Boxercise x 2 - I'm really enjoying getting to these classes when I can. It is essentially a circuits class with boxing and strength training thrown in. Each week focuses on a different area of the body, arms, legs and core for example and I always leave the two sessions dripping in sweat and feeling like I need a lie down. Not to mention the serious amount of DOMS I wake up with the next morning.
Tuesday
Speed training - 5.65 miles
1.5 mile warm up
4 x 4 mins @ 90% effort
4 x 3 mins @ recovery jog
1.5 mile cool down
I actually went all out on this run and really pushed myself and it felt great. I really struggle with the speed side of things and I'm so stuck in my way of plodding along but I'm trying to change it. It makes such a different my average pace has now dropped down to 10/10:30 m/m which I'm really happy with, and it shows with 3 parkrun pb's in a row.

Rest - I'm running the Nene Valley 10 on Sunday and want to go into it with fresh legs, I'm really nervous as I haven't ran more than 6 miles since the GER and I'm probably going to come last, but oh well it's the taking part that counts right?!

A very lazy week, with a little bit too much rest. Sunday marked the start of my marathon training! I am scared, very scared.
